Log Cabin Roof Insulation

Bertsch Log Cabin Roof Insulation is specifically designed to be fitted on top of the roof boards but UNDER the Felt or Roof Shingle Finish. It has a very porous, yet very rigid, surface which is designed to accommodate the bitumen adhesive that is within the body of the roof shingles / shed felt and that is slowly released over time owing to the action of the sunlight and warmth.

To fit simply tack the roof insulation down to the roof boards using 60mm / 70mm clout nails (not supplied) then once the shingles are fitted, which have 4 nails each, the roof shingles and insulation become very sturdy.

Simply Log Cabins Comment:

General advice is if a cabin is used only as a summer house or occasionally roof insulation has a lesser value but used throughout the year then it is well worth considering
